Well, from what I have seen at my tattoo shop, the fellers get themselves their first bike...yep, a "kustom"..and find out the "DogHogBossFangler" production "custom" isn't all they had been frothing about for the two years before they bought it...get sick of dealing with spotty performance, and shitty customer service...(really and truly sadly most of these cats can't and won't turn a damn wrench..so, they are HELPLESS when the most minor thing comes up)...They throw up their hands, and sell it.
I have one customer...Got his RoadToad or whatever the fuck it was, and hadda have his tattoo the same week..first bike, first ink..and then he was "Born to be Mild"...
A few months goes by, he has a second nearly identical bike from another company...
Spends months on the phone fighting with both companies.
We tell him to get a bagger, and sort the shit out later, cause he actually does want to ride.
Fucker goes and gets a third fucking billet monstrosity...and fights with a THIRD company...meanwhile, he's taken it in the ass selling the other bikes.
Just clueless shit...I'd be disgusted, but the dude actually WANTS to ride, though his asthetic is pretty gawd-awful.
We pointed him towards a FXRP, and he's feeling it. But, meanwhile he's out a boatload of coin.
